Well you see, Norm, it’s like this… A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

Giants get worked. There is no other way to say it.

The Iraq War. For many it brings about feelings of anger.
Hopefully soon the Iraq military will be sufficiently trained and we can bring our soldiers home. And although I oppose war, I support our troops.
Here are some amazing accounts and pictures from the front lines.
Giants lose to the Rockies 3-2
Here is a little vid from the seats.
